We have a partitioned table structure where the partitions are created on a daily basis. One of the inserts into the daily partition failed (crashed) ..the partition was empty after the crash. We did a vacuum of the partition and it takes very long (over 30 minutes). Postgres 8.1.2 ... vacuum_cost_delay = 0. 2 cpu...dual core with raid 10 6x300Gb disks. the load during vacuum was normal (about 50% cpu util with a similar IO wait). What is vacuum doing that takes so long on an empty table? -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
